Chapter 39: Can’t you stop worrying about eating only for a moment?

Translator: DragonRider

Before the wedding banquet was about to officially begin, Rong Yi listened to Chen Keyao’s not-very-pleasant story intermittently.

Chen Keyao’s father, still very charming, was not a Casanova as Rong Yi speculated. On the contrary, his problem might have been his obsession for one love.

Before that accident in his youth, he had a beloved Beta girl. He even had the courage to confess his love to her, but unfortunately he was rejected by her. The girl told him that he was still too young and that he could come back to her after graduation.

It sounded like a pretext, but he took it to heart. Because the girl was several years older than him, and was his head teacher of his class at that time.

However, by the time he did graduate from high school, Chen Keyao was old enough to toddle. The young teacher had also got married already. From then on, their lives never had intersections any more.

Chen Keyao’s father gradually matured in the passage of time, but the person in his heart whom he couldn’t be with eventually did not lose half of her beauty due to the erosion of time.

In his memory, she became even more beautiful, more pure and lovely, and more heart-capturing. Like every dream that you never achieved when you were young, you could never forget it. Then when he opened his eyes and looked back at his side, he felt an endless void.

Sister Lan certainly could not understand.

She used to have a lot of suitors too, but now all the compromises made for this man couldn’t get even half of a ripple of the heart in return.

So there was only her little son left in her world. Chen Keyao’s arrival plunged her into an abyss, but it also brought her infinite warmth and comfort.

“When I was a child, I was really afraid of her,” said Chen Keyao, holding his head in one hand. Although he turned his face at Rong Yi, he did not look at him. “Because I had no idea when she would suddenly lose temper with me.”

Rong Yi found it hard to imagine.

In his memory Sister Lan had always been very gentle, even the tone of her voice was particularly soft, which would make whoever listened to it involuntarily and subconsciously feel calm and peaceful too.

“I liked my father when I was little, because, although he nagged a lot, he never scolded me or beat me up, and he would take me to all the fun places,” said Chen Keyao. “But whenever Sister Lan saw me and my father being very close, she would be upset. At that time, I was very nervous after school every day, because she always talked about something that made me feel particularly unhappy on the way back.”

“…” Rong Yi held out his hand and grabbed Chen Keyao’s cuff. “Then don’t recall these any more. It doesn’t matter if I don’t hear all these.”

Chen Keyao finally looked at him and laughed.

“It doesn’t matter. It’s all over,” he said, holding Rong Yi’s hand into his palm spontaneously. “I haven’t seen her lose her temper since she was with uncle. Every time I see her, I think she’s getting younger again.”

Rong Yi was suddenly nervous. In order to avoid his eyes, he pretended to turn around to look for Sister Lan.

Before he could see anyone, the lights in the hall suddenly all dimmed out.

Then, the music started playing, and the MC in a suit was on the stage with a microphone.

Chen Keyao loosened his grip and picked up his chopsticks. “Now no one can see us. I’m starving!”

.

Rong Yi had always yearned for such occasions as weddings.

The new couple, dressed in formal clothes, stood in the middle of the stage, pledged their love under the witness of the MC and all the guests, exchanged rings and kissed sweetly. Countless pieces of confetti danced in the air with the sound of music. Everything was the perfect embodiment of the word ‘romance’.

“… I’m so envious.’ Rong Yi looked up at the stage and whispered.

The man sitting next to him was totally untouched.

“Wow, will the confetti fly to our table?” Chen Keyao was particularly nervous about the whole table of food in front of him being contaminated.

Rong Yi stared at him in the darkness. “Can’t you stop worrying about eating only for a moment?”

“Oh,” Chen Keyao put down his chopsticks very obediently, and then tugged at Rong Yi’s sleeve, “Have you tried this preserved radish? It’s so yummy. Will you be able to learn to cook it for me?”

Rong Yi rolled his eyes and pulled back his sleeve from his hands. Then he frowned, picked up his chopsticks and put a piece in his mouth.

While he was still carefully pondering what ingredients were put into it, Chen Keyao, whose eyes were on the stage, suddenly said, “Sure enough, the white suit looks better, doesn’t it?”

Rong Yi nodded at once.

Chen Keyao turned his eyes from the stage to his side and then laughed, “You would surely look better in this suit.”

Rong Yi paused his chewing for a moment.

“After all, white is picky about the figures,” Chen Keyao said. “It’s suitable for people like you who have slender waists and long legs.”

Rong Yi’s face started burning. He lowered his head and murmured in a low voice, “You think too much. Just eat your food.”

But Chen Keyao did not pick up his chopsticks.

He seemed to have become slightly unwell for some reason. He frowned and picked up the glass to drink two big mouthful of water.

Rong Yi was worried, “What’s wrong with you?”

This fellow moved away in an instant: “Don’t, don’t, don’t come over, stay away from me.”

Being abandoned for no reason, Rong Yi was very upset, so he no longer paid any attention to him, and turned his head and focused on the stage.

Until the end of the dinner, no more words were said between the two men.

Chen Keyao didn’t drink because he needed to drive. Rong Yi drank some, but he didn’t regard himself as drunk, but slightly tipsy.

After they got on the car, Rong Yi quickly leaned against the seat, closed his eyes and pretend to sleep. A moment later, he heard Chen Keyao calling his name in his half sleep.

“Why?” Rong Yi responded with his eyes closed.

“It’s all right,” said Chen Keyao. “Just wanted to see if you are asleep.”

Rong Yi smacked his lips: “… I was asleep.”

Chen Keyao chuckled a few times and then asked, “Do you think the car has been shaking?”

“No.” Rong Yi said.

Chen Keyao asked again: “… So, would you like to buy a box of candy?

“I’m not drunk!” Rong Yi opened his eyes. “Why are you so annoying?”

Chen Keyao did not speak, just laughed.

Rong Yi was not very happy about it. He sat up straight and was just about to say something again when he heard Chen Keyao suddenly uttered a surprised sound. Then he slowly pulled over to the side of the road.

Rong Yi looked ahead and found a man standing on the side of the road waving at them exaggeratedly. Not far away, there was a car that seemed to have broken down.

The roads here were slightly remote, and there were very few vehicles and pedestrians on the roads. It seemed that this man was in some trouble, so he wanted to ask them for help.

After getting off with Chen Keyao, Rong Yi stared at the man who asked for help, and then immediately gave an “ah” sound.

He hurried over to the man before Chen Keyao and said word by word, “Yu, Wen, Luo!”.

That man was stunned: “Do we know each other?”

He looked up and down at Rong Yi and then also remembered something, “ah, I remember!” We’ve met before!”

Chen Keyao, who was left aside by them, couldn’t help interrupting: “What a coincidence. So this is your friend?”

Rong Yi turned his head: “… Not really friend.”

They’d seen each other once and hardly exchanged few words. He knew his name because Yu Wenluo had a badge on his chest at that time. And he remembered his name so well because Yu Wenluo was very handsome.

“We met in the supermarket the other day,” Yu Wenluo laughed. “What a coincidence.”

Chen Keyao looked at him and looked at Rong Yi. Then he asked, “is there any trouble?”

Yu Wenluo’s car was indeed broken down.

More tragically, his mobile phone was out of power and could not even call for help. At present, there was no one around here for a long time. The two passing cars just now only turned a blind eye to him. At last, some kind-hearted man was finally willing to help him out, and they had even met each other before. Yu Wenluo was delighted.

When Chen Keyao lent his mobile phone to him, he quickly got through the towing company. However, it would take them a little time to arrive. Fearing that the towing company would not be able to contact him on their way here, Chen Keyao and Rong Yi stayed and waited together with him.

“God bless you,” Yu Wenluo was very touched. “You are so kind. Otherwise I guess I’ll have to sleep in the car tonight.”

Rong Yi looked at his face and nodded, “Don’t mention it.”

Chen Keyao whispered into his ear: “So what exactly have you done for him?”

Rong Yi ignored him.

A moment later, the tow car came. When Yu Wenluo communicated with the staff, Rong Yi pulled Chen Keyao aside and looked at him seriously.

“Are you so kind to him because he was good-looking?”

Chen Keyao hesitated. “I couldn’t see his face clearly at all when I stopped.”

Rong Yi was still suspicious.

“… But he is really handsome.” Chen Keyao said again.

Rong Yi stared at him, then walked quickly to Yu Wenluo, who was watching the tow car.

He went straight to the point: “Give me your wechat ID please.”

Yu Wenluo was surprised, but fished out his mobile phone immediately: “You can scan my QR code. Ah…But I can’t turn it on now… You add me first, and I’ll pass it when I get home.”

Stunned, Chen Keyao came over quickly: “you are…”

“You can add me too,” Yu Wenluo volunteered to him. “Thank you so much today. I’ll invite you to dinner sometime.”

.

Finally, Chen Keyao even drove Yu Wenluo home.

Rong Yi sat in the back seat, listening to the happy conversation between the two men all the way. They were talking about cars which he was not interested in at all. Fortunately, it was not long before he fall asleep.

When he woke up again, the car was parked downstairs, with himself and Chen Keyao alone.

“Are you awake now?” Chen Keyao looked back at him.

Rong Yi stretched out, and wiped his face with his hand: “Yes.”

“Awake from the sleep. Are awake from the alcohol as well?”

“… I’m not drunk.” Rong Yi frowned.

“So you still remember what you did just now, right?” Chen Keyao asked.

Rong Yi frowned and thought for a moment, then took his mobile phone out of his pocket and checked it.

A message of friendship validation.

“Ah,” Rong Yi muttered in a low voice, “he added me.”

Then he hesitated for a moment and looked up at Chen Keyao. “Did he add you too?”

Chen Keyao smiled at him: “Yes.”
